Read articles →A maple farm owner and his dad physically visit three dealerships to sit in and briefly drive-test the LS MT573, Kubota M4D-071, and John Deere 5075E before buying. The video closes with actual out-the-door price quotes for all three (LS $50,700 / Deere $59,239 / Kubota $67,691) and a few noted feature differences like Kubota's electronic shuttle shift and LS's standard third function.
